Conclusions
1. Immunotherapy: an explosion
2. Targeted therapies: focus on cancers with a
genomically activated target needed
3. Avatars to be further implemented, will be needed
in drug development and individual patient
management
4. Hereditary cancer predisposition deserves MUCH
more attention for reasons of prevention and
therapy
